Fridays are not supposed to suck.

It was supposed to be my day off, yet I got called into work by my wonderful Captain, and well, one should not turn down the O-6 who wants to pay your salary. So this one did not. I took the fastest shower known to man, grabbed my keys after getting dressed and hauled my keister into the office.

After working a few hours, I came home in time to realize that... I only had half my keys. That would be the half without the apartment key so I was locked out. Couldn't reach the spouse, couldn't reach my mother in law (who has a key) and the rental office (which has a spare for each unit) closed early.

ARRGH.

So I drove all over until I got in touch with my mother in law, got the key and came home. Nothing got done today... I had to bust some butt to vacuum really good and dust some, and get the curtains washed and folded to be put away.

Dinner? Oh dinner was pb&j, and spaghetti-o's for Maddie. Stretch went to the movies with some friends, the boy is spending the night with Grandma. I did homework, then helped the spouse with his statistics homework... and now am wiped out and ready for bed.

Oh wait, a bright note... my kitchen cabinets are in and they are gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous.... Tuesday the appliances get delivered. Tomorrow it's a Christmas sing thing with the brownie girl scouts (Maddie) then off to the airport to pick up my friends from Norway. We'll do a driving tour through DC to see all the lights and such.

Saturday better be a better day than this frustrating Friday!
